The entire City of Dawn was immersed in grief.
Even though the dark clouds above their heads had dissipated and the dazzling sun was hanging in the sky, the civilians in the city still felt as if there was a blurry black screen in front of them …
Nearly 60,000 professionals had perished in battle.
Half of them had no family members.
But what about the other half?
The joy of victory had disappeared in a short period of time. What was left was endless grief. It was a sad memory that could not be erased with time.
In the City of Dawn.
The once beautiful and picturesque scenery had long since disappeared. Broken houses were everywhere, neat and orderly magic lamps were everywhere, and the clear Rainbow River was also covered with a layer of haze.
At the same time.
Both sides of the streets were filled with countless corpses covered with white cloth!
Many people were in pain.
The players who could not die walked on the streets, feeling at a loss.
"Have you seen my son? Have you seen my son? He's very tall. He's only 16 years old. He has short black hair and is fair and clean. When he smiles, he has a small dimple. He has just become a reserve soldier. Have you seen him?" An old woman was crying so hard that her eyes were about to go blind. She tightly held onto the arm of a player and kept asking.
This player was Xiao Ayin. Her eyes were also red, but she pursed her lips and comforted the old woman. "Don't worry, granny. They'll be fine. They'll be fine. The reserve soldiers are the last to charge. Your son will definitely be fine."
"Really? Then why hasn't he returned home … Why hasn't he returned home? "The old woman sat on the street dejectedly and kept muttering to herself.
Xiao Ayin did not dare to say more. There were indeed some people who had not returned home, but they were Intermediate professionals. There were also Burned Cinder and the other BOSSES. They were using the space ring to clean up the battlefield and collect all the corpses.
As for the beginner professionals who had not returned …
There was only one possibility.
There wasn't even a complete corpse left.
There were too many of them.
There were almost 60,000 casualties.
Half of the corpses were not brought back. Most of them had been devoured by the dark creatures. Not a single memento was left behind.
The professional players of the Glory Club sat at the side in a daze. They looked at the civilians who had fallen into endless grief. They knew that the vitality of the City of Dawn had been greatly damaged.
The Lord had absolute power and authority.
But if they did not handle this matter well.
The territory might really be in danger.
Perhaps some people were afraid of the Lord's authority. Even if they were filled with resentment, they did not dare to say a word.
However, there were also a few people who were cursing …
However, what they saw was only the surface. They did not know William's talents.
His Royal Highness would usually crazily increase the favorability of the commoners in his territory, but now it was just a sudden drop in favorability. It was not enough to cause a riot.
"Your Highness, if you don't let beginner professionals fight …"
"Shut up!" Chu Liuqiu glanced at his team members and sneered. "Have you seen the official website? How many cities and duchies have fallen in the last ten days of the Darkness invasion? The death toll has reached 100 million. Do you know what 100 million is? In your eyes, 100 million is just a nine-digit number. It can fill up the entire Massacre Prairie and pile it up very high. Do you know that?"
"Without Prince William's decisive decision and alliance, not only the City of Dawn, but also the southeastern region would follow in the footsteps of the other countries."
"Look at the forces in the fallen cities. There are countless casualties. If it really comes to that, do you think that only professionals will die? Do you think those civilians who have the time to curse will still be alive? When the time comes, they will die the fastest!"
Chu Liuqiu didn't say anything else after scolding that team member.
He squinted his eyes and ran to the forum. Then, he started to post.
Recently, many players in the City of Dawn had started to stir up trouble.
Countless casualties? Sir Lord is too ruthless. Why did he send those Professions who had just stepped into the Beginner Stage to die?
But Chu Liuqiu wanted to say that they should rely on themselves instead of the NPCs.
Didn't they know that the beginner professionals of the NPCs and the beginner professionals of the players could beat them up?
A bunch of idiots who only knew how to charge around. His voice was hoarse from shouting, but he couldn't stop them from charging around.
The counterattack on the seventh day was too chaotic.
The troops of the players were especially chaotic.
Chu Liuqiu was the commander of the tens of thousands of players …
He really wanted to curse.
How could he command?
It was a huge battlefield, and the players couldn't understand flag language. He could only use the transmission scrolls to inform the commanders of the major player legions. He let them lead the legions and command the players.
During the decisive battle, he had used no less than five transmission scrolls, but he couldn't stop the chaos caused by the players.
It had to be known.
The first wave of attack was from the silver-backed monkeys.
The second wave was from the Blade Cavalry Legion and the Troll legion.
The third wave was from the other legions!
The fourth wave was from the players.
His Highness gave the easiest battlefield to the players who had just advanced. But what about them?
It was a mess!
In fact, Chu Liuqiu was curious when he received the notice. Why didn't His Highness let the players die?
Then he understood.
His Highness wanted to go all out in one go!
Not to weaken the morale of the players.
An army of half a million dark creatures.
Would the players obediently throw away their lives if they really rushed forward?
No matter how rich the rewards were, there would be people who would fish in troubled waters.
At that time, the morale of the soldiers would be affected. How could they fight with such an irresistible advantage?
Chu Liuqiu, who usually only read posts and never posted anything.
As the captain of the world champion team, he posted a post.
[Why are you making trouble? When did His Highness show coldness and ruthlessness?]
Chu Liuqiu didn't talk nonsense.
He played the big picture and played with big data.
Everything was based on data.
He posted the number of fallen kingdoms in the nine continents: 89, with only 13 duchies still holding on.
[Professional Casualties: 7.1 million!]
Civilian deaths: 93.1 million!
Professional deaths in the southeast region: 180,000!
Civilian deaths: 3531!
Civilian deaths in the City of Dawn: 9!
At the same time.
He sent out a few more recordings. They were of William arranging various matters, all of which were the conversations of many missions that focused on protecting the civilians!
After Chu Liuqiu posted these, he only left one last sentence. "If there are no accidents, the final counterattack can only be caused by His Highness. Only he has such charisma.
"Among the nine continents, only the southeast region, under the leadership of the Lord, won the counterattack.
"The City of Dawn only lost 9 civilians. But you people are making trouble by saying that His Highness is cold and ruthless. If the professionals don't fight, are they going to rely on the civilians?
"Are you people hired by some idiots?"
'Hugging the long legs of the goddess': "I haven't seen anything. I just saw a post from a yo-yo. I'll go to the second post."
'Ruthless b * tch': "I can't get to the second post. I'll go to the third post. Tea and stools are ready."
'Ferocious as a tiger. Looking at the battle record, zero bar five': "Those idiots from Emerald Grand Duchy must have hired some people to post. They saw that Goethe Nasis had become a devil and the embodiment of evil, so they started to criticize His Highness."
'Forever Alone': "That idiot Light of Freedom spent money to hire some people to post. Someone sent me a screenshot. Everyone, take a look ~"
Pictures.
6th comment: "F * ck, two professional players appearing in the same post at the same time. I want to say that the shamelessness of Light of Freedom has broken the bottom line. I want to know when we will go to Emerald Grand Duchy and kill those shameless grandsons until they quit the game!"
Chu Liuqiu's post attracted a lot of attention.
It was instantly pinned at the top by the administrator of the City of Dawn.
William, who was resting, glanced at the forum and saw this post. He silently praised Chu Liuqiu. In the future, he would find an opportunity to show off.
William didn't care what the players said about him.
But there were some people who were rotten to the core who were really hateful.
William stroked his chin. Was it Light of Freedom?
Did they know about the 'Freedom Cage'? There was a magic scroll that restricted one's freedom? Even if one died, one couldn't return to the resurrection point. One would be trapped forever!
Did they know about the 'Dark Cage'? If one was thrown into the Dark World, even if one died, one could only be reborn in the Dark World.
Did they know about the 'Big Boss Slaughtering Small Accounts'? Yes, they should know.
The 'Freedom Cage' and 'Dark Cage' were invented by some NPCs to target the chosen ones!
Because many of the chosen ones who couldn't die were really despicable …
They were so despicable that many NPCs would explode in anger.
Hence, the NPCs started to research things to deal with the chosen ones.
The 'Freedom Cage' magic scroll could only be created by enchanters. It was also researched by the NPCs in the later stages of the game.
William didn't need to spend so much effort on the 'Light of Freedom'. He also didn't need to hire assassins from the Assassin Alliance. It was a waste of gold coins.
When he was free, he would go to the Emerald Grand Duchy and kill the level 10 small accounts of the Light of Freedom. Oh, the Light of Freedom had created a guild with 20,000 members. It was called the 'Freedom Alliance'.
He would kill the Light of Freedom along the way …
Anyway, it would give him experience points.
If the Light of Freedom dared to level up, William dared to kill him.
He would kill him until the Light of Freedom changed his account.
Then he would continue killing.
As long as his voice was heard on the forum.
William could disguise himself as an ordinary NPC and kill the Light of Freedom 10,000 times.
William had become a Legendary BOSS long ago. He didn't want to be angry with some players. However, some players were courting death by attacking him from hundreds of kilometers away. William had no choice but to give in!
He had long forgotten about those players …
Since the players under his command were too far away and couldn't help him kill the Light of Freedom, they couldn't blame him for doing it himself.
After all, it was time for the players to see the scene of a Legendary BOSS turning into a bloody butcher and destroying the players' guild base.
"It's all for your own good. I don't want to cause trouble in the future. For example, if you can't slay a Dragon or summon a wild BOSS, I won't care." William laughed mischievously. He had to go to the Emerald Grand Duchy.
He was related to version 2.0. Although it had been a long time since the current version, it was time to prepare some chess pieces.
William didn't want to show his face in the city. He wanted to wait for the citizens to calm down before dealing with the aftermath. Suddenly, there was a deafening explosion!
He flew into the sky and landed on the Moon Tree, which was emitting black smoke!
At this moment,
He saw the garden in the sky that had already been destroyed, as well as a Space Gate that was exposed outside.
Arthur stood at the side in a daze. He didn't know where Annie had obtained the magic scroll. It was powerful enough to destroy the barrier of a Space Enchanter …
"Damn, the Darkness invasion of the southeastern region is nothing. The Darkness invasion of the Moonlight Forest is the real meat grinder!" William felt a headache coming on, and his expression kept changing.
Go!
Or not!
